QS18VN6D-71503 Banner Proximity Sensors

Banner Engineering QS18VN6D-71503 is a photo-electric sensor designed for versatile applications, featuring an M18 threaded mount for secure installation. This sensor operates within an ambient air temperature range of -20 to +70°C and is housed in a thermoplastic casing with an acrylic lens, ensuring durability. It is equipped with a pre-wired 6.5ft / 2m cable with bare end flying leads for easy connection. The QS18 series sensor falls under the IP67 and NEMA 6 protection classes, indicating a high degree of protection against dust and water. It supports a supply voltage range of 10Vdc to 30Vdc, with nominal values of 12Vdc and 24Vdc. The sensor's shape is rectangular, and it utilizes diffuse mode with potentiometer adjustment for sensing, without the need for a pot. It can detect objects up to a distance of 450mm using infrared (IR) light and offers both Light-ON and Dark-ON operating modes. Additionally, it features a digital output (NPN transistor; complementary NO/NC) and boasts a quick response time of 0.6ms / 0.0006 s.
